I, the Knight King, wield my sword for my myriad subjects.

Because she sensed a familiar aura of a superior being descending upon this human knight who seemed incredibly weak to her.

"Lani, your body belongs only to you!"

But Arthur focused intently on swinging his sword with all his might, completely ignoring the witch's strange behavior.

When the sword's edge touched the silver necklace on the witch's neck once more.

Arthur's voice pierced through the physical barriers of his body, reaching the ears of the original owner of the body, who was imprisoned deep within the consciousness of the resurrected witch:

So, go and take back your body!

This familiar voice, like the first light of dawn, gradually brought clarity to the once fading, pale blue spirit girl.

But back in the real world.

The silver necklace around the witch's neck was far harder than Arthur had anticipated.

His two full-force bursts of extraordinary power failed to completely destroy it, only creating two tiny cracks on its surface.

Then, they looked at the witch who had been hit by Arthur's attack.

The fear and shock that had been on her delicate face vanished, replaced by an arrogant and aloof demeanor.

Immediately, with a thought, she used the gray mist to reshape a giant floating arm, and controlled it to knock Arthur away from her with a single palm strike.

Followed by.

She gracefully twirled her fingertips, which then twined around thorny vines sculpted from gray mist:

"Human knight, no matter your origin."

I want you dead....."

But before she could finish speaking, the girl's body she was controlling began to lose its balance and fall over.

Arthur's attack just now was not in vain.

It was Lani who was able to take back control of her body.

But Lani knew very well that she had no real control over her body.

However, she has a more crucial way to break the deadlock.

Lani covered her head with both hands, trying her best to suppress the witch's consciousness with her own willpower.

Then, with her head down, she spoke in a hoarse voice:

"Little lion, hurry and find a bracelet, it's nearby!"

The voice just fell.

The witch then took over the girl's body again.

But she seemed unaware of the message Lani had just conveyed to Arthur, and continued with her unfinished declaration:

"You will suffer the torment of withering and piercing your heart a thousand times over!"

But let's return to Arthur's perspective.

He was not intimidated by the witch, but instead focused on the important information Lani had given him after her consciousness returned.

Looking for a bracelet!

He held his breath, kept his mind calm, and made a decision in his mind.

With this in mind, the witch's thorny vines and crimson arrows came flying.

Right now, the "heroic blessing" bestowed upon him will last for another half minute, or thirty seconds.

So he chose to abandon his defenses and focus on finding the bracelet that Lani had mentioned existed in this gray, misty space.

Having endured countless hardships and oppressions, Arthur's mind was now exceptionally calm.

Soon, he recalled a crucial location—the spot where the enormous flower bud that had trapped Lani and Vivi had been.

then.

Arthur first unleashed the "Power of the Moon" and the "Power of the Sun," using the radiance of these two extraordinary powers to effectively dispel the extremely low visibility of the gray fog around him, thus widening his field of vision.

Soon, they moved into a wide-open field of vision.

He found the unconscious girl, Vivi.

Then he scanned Vivi's surroundings.

In the end, just as expected.

He saw that the unconscious girl was tightly clutching a strangely shaped bracelet in her hand.

That's it!

Arthur instantly realized that this was his target.

With fifteen seconds remaining in Lv.1's "Heroic Blessing".

He wielded the Flameheart Sword, slashing at the thorny vines attacking from all sides while enduring the crimson arrows that struck him and rapidly drained his life force.

They arrived in front of the girl, Vivi.

"Hmm? What did that alien soul, which was reborn into my 'vessel' and stubbornly resisted, say to you?!"

At this moment, the witch who controlled Lani's body exclaimed in surprise when she saw Arthur appear next to her other "vessel".

She frowned, immediately realizing something was wrong.

She withdrew the "witchcraft" release of the crimson blood arrow and instead focused on controlling the "witchcraft" of the gray mist.

The witch used gray mist to create several incredibly thick thorny vines, launching a swift and relentless attack on Arthur.

But the witch's fierce attack brought a knowing smile to Arthur's face.

At this moment, a joke from his past life that he hadn't forgotten couldn't help but recall in his mind:

"The more the enemy tries to stop me, the more it proves that I am doing the right thing."

When those incredibly thick thorny vines appeared before him.

Arthur moved even faster, picking up the girl Vivi and taking the strangely shaped bracelet from her hand.

The moment the bracelet was fastened.

The thick, thorny vines that were only inches away from Arthur suddenly stopped, not moving forward an inch.

It was as if there was an invisible barrier or shield in front of Arthur, preventing them from advancing.

Seeing this, Arthur's fighting spirit did not waver.

Because the witch still exists.

His goal of saving Miss Lani is not yet complete!

So he immediately put down the unconscious girl, Vivi, from his arms.

Then, he fully activated the "Flame Lion Breathing Technique," unleashing the maximum flame wave from the life seed.

Immediately afterwards, with a thought, all the flame waves were channeled between his legs.

In the last 10 seconds, under the Lv.1 "Blessing of Valor" state.

Arthur wasn't afraid of even a crimson arrow piercing his heart, so why would he fear overloading his body?

Undeterred by the potential interference from these thorny vines.

next second.

Arthur unleashed an astonishing speed twice as fast as ever, launching a final assault on the witch who was still dominating Lani's body.

With 1 second remaining in Lv.8 "Heroic Blessing".

With a do-or-die attitude, Arthur approached the witch.

"You insane human knight!"

At this moment, even the witch couldn't help but feel horrified by Arthur's actions of abandoning everything and pushing his body to its limits.

For a fleeting moment, she had this illusion:

This human knight's unwavering will is perhaps far more terrifying than the extraordinary power he possesses!

But a deep apprehension about the bracelet Arthur was clutching tightly brought the witch back to the present moment.

She frowned and began to manipulate the thorny vines, retreating rapidly in their embrace.

"Are you afraid?"

Upon seeing this, Arthur immediately launched into a tirade of curses:

"You are not the root of evil in human nature, bringing about the fog of extinction and end."

Look at you, looking so pathetic! Hahaha, it's ridiculous!

I think they're nothing but trash, constantly possessing other people's bodies to prolong their lives!

With 1 second remaining in Lv.4 "Heroic Blessing".

Arthur's psychological tactics worked.

Enraged, the witch stopped fleeing and then stood still.

Then, she revealed a hideous and grotesque face on the delicate face of the young girl, Lani.

Then, she opened one hand toward Arthur, who was closing in on her, and declared:

"Human knight, remember this."

"I am Morgan, the Grey-Red Rose Witch!"

The voice just fell.

Crimson light burst forth from her palm once more.

But this time, it is very different from before.

The moment the crimson light appeared, it did not form a deadly and powerful arrow that pierced the heart, but instead condensed into an obscure and mysterious blood-red mark.

next moment.

Under the control of the witch Morgan, the crimson mark headed straight for Arthur's heart.

From Arthur's perspective.

When he saw the blood-red mark rushing towards him, a strong sense of unease arose in his heart.

However, Lv.1 "Blessing of Valor" has 3 seconds remaining.

At this moment, he had no time for further thought.

Holding the strange bracelet that the witch Morgan feared greatly, he mustered all his strength and launched a final sprint.

finally.

The crimson mark shot by the witch Morgan seemed like an illusion, piercing through his chest and reaching his heart, where blood was pumping wildly.

then.

As Arthur felt a momentary sharp pain in his heart, the blood-red mark completely dissolved on the surface of his heart.

Now let's look at Arthur himself.

With 1 second remaining in Lv.1 "Heroic Blessing".

He had already brought the strangely shaped bracelet in his hand into contact with the palm that the witch Morgan had raised.

next moment.

Something Arthur hadn't anticipated happened.

The notification sounded in his mind as the Lv.1 "Heroic Blessing" ended.

The witch Morgan did not refuse to touch the bracelet; instead, she took it in her hand.

Then, she let out a charming laugh.

Then, she actually hugged Arthur when he came to her.

As Arthur inhaled the familiar, refreshing fragrance emanating from Lani's body, he couldn't help but feel a strange flutter in his heart.

And at this moment.
